3D Construction Kit (US, Canada and Israel release title: Virtual Reality Studio), also known as 3D Virtual Studio, is a utility for creating 3D worlds in Freescape. Developed by Incentive Software and published by Domark , it was released in 1991 on multiple platforms .
Roblox allows users to create and publish their own games, which can then be played by other users, by using its game engine, Roblox Studio. [15] Roblox Studio includes multiple premade game templates [ 16 ] [ 17 ] as well as the Toolbox, which allows access to user-created models, plug-ins , audio, images, meshes, video, and fonts.
Compared to the original, 3D Construction Kit II has double the number of controls and commands for added complexity and flexibility. Transparent objects can be created and ones that fade over time. The game supports rounded objects such as "flexicubes" and spheres, which were not possible in the original 3D Construction Kit. This feature is ...
Strata 3D was one of the first desktop 3D graphics applications, [2] releasing StrataVision 3D in 1989. The company was formed by brothers Ken and Gary Bringhurst. In 2016, Strata announced plans to move into augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR), [3] allowing users to view and sell design projects using VR and AR headsets as well as offering custom VR/AR development.
Wind-up toys – often as a simple mechanical motor, or to create automata. These may be either key-wound, as were many 20th-century model trains, or a simpler pullback motor. Most photographic camera leaf shutters use a clockwork mechanism not unlike that of wristwatches to time the opening and closing of the shutter blades.
StrataVision 3D is a comprehensive 3D computer graphics software package developed by Strata. Features include primitives-based modeling with texturising, keyframe animation, raytrace and later radiosity rendering under the name of Raydiosity. It is notable for being part of the first wave of 3D graphics in desktop publishing.
Around 1938, production was begun on tin cars that were made either with clockwork motors or 'telesteering' where the toy could be steered through a small steering wheel attached to the car with a wire. [5] Schuco 'Studio' cars had a starting crank, removable wheels, varied gearing and rack and pinion steering. Cars came with miniature tool kits.
3D aerobatic flying is a typically performed by model aircraft which have been configured with a higher thrust-to-weight ratio of more than 1:1. In fixed wing aeroplanes large control surfaces assist the aircraft on performing radical maneuvers which allow the aircraft to turn in tighter than conventional turns.
